Does any body can help me finding a vacuum conveyor to handle nuts? we need to get the product out of a conteiner and then convey it, to a diferent places. our needs are about 100 pounds per hour. and of course has to be FDA aproved?
I am located in India and have an office in the US also.
I presume that you have already checked out all the Yellow Pages, Google search and other search engines for FDA approved Vacuum/pneumatic conveying equipment manufacturers worldwide and not getting what you want, you have put in this request for help on CR4.
I guess you want a vacuum system to handle agricultural/horticultural products (like cashew nuts, almonds and similar) and not industrial fasteners (Nuts), that's why the FDA approval ?!!
If you just tilt the container of the nuts into a broad basin and direct any vacuum cleaner nozzle (preferably industrial type), you'll be able to suck out the nuts on to a pneumatic conveyor (instead of the usual dust collection bag), which will then blow the nuts along and put in a double door system for discharging the nuts at the various locations wherever they are required.
Please visit our website www.artecrobotics.com to get an idea about us.We do not claim specific expertise in vacuum/pneumatic conveying but with the expertise in finding solutions, System engineering and Robotics, you can get us to design a complete system for you as Industrial automation consultants.
In fact a pneumatic scheme will be able to generate the required vacuum by the principle of eduction, which will create low pressure (Vacuum) behind the nozzle blowing the compressed air into a pipe or duct.The details of the required flow rate and air pressure (dry and oil/dust free) will depend upon the shape,density/volume of the individual nuts to be handled.
Please feel free to communicate and we can together see how to put a complete system to work for you.
